I've tried 4 times now to sear a steak on cast iron and every time I fill the house with smoke. It pisses off the wife, triggers the smoke alarms, wakes up the kids (my oldest one already suffers from asthma), and we have to open every door and window when it's 100+ degrees outside. I've tried a lighter amount of seasoning, different oils with higher smoke points.. nothing works. But at least the steak has turned out pretty good.
So any tips on how now to fill the house with smoke when I'm searing a steak?
